Kinematic alignment, but not mechanical alignment, preserves the knee–ankle relationship after total knee arthroplasty: A retrospective radiographic analysis from the FP‐UCBM Knee Study Group

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Several alignment strategies have been proposed in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), with the two extremes being mechanical alignment (MA) and unrestricted kinematic alignment (KA). While MA standardises coronal knee parameters to achieve a neutral alignment, KA reproduces each patient's native joint lines.

Dynamic coronal plane knee alignment: Femoral anatomy determines kinematic curve morphology, tibial anatomy determines curve position

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose A single hip–knee–ankle angle (HKA) angle does not reflect the biomechanics of native, arthritic or prosthetic knees. Since HKA varies throughout flexion, dynamic coronal alignment is best represented by a kinematic curve plotting HKA against the range of motion.

Targeting ligament boundaries rather than alignment boundaries in augmented‐reality‐assisted total knee arthroplasty ensures comparable gait patterns between operated and contralateral limbs

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Modern personalised total knee arthroplasty (TKA) techniques aim to mimic natural knee kinematics by focusing on soft‐tissue dynamics rather than static alignment. However, a consistent definition of the optimal ligamentous balance has not yet been established.

Quadriceps malalignment is strongly associated with recurrent patellofemoral instability in native knees

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Patellofemoral instability (PFI) has been associated with multiple anatomical risk factors. The recent development of accurate quadriceps muscle measurements using three‐dimensional imaging techniques have demonstrated that quadriceps alignment is highly variable and frequently leads to a lateralised force vector on the patella.

Quantifying Soft‐Surgery in Cochlear Implantation: Multimodal Data From 30 International Specialists

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Objective data from 30 specialist cochlear implant surgeons showed that surgical handling strongly influences intracochlear mechanical stress during implantation. Surgeons with fewer than 50 lifetime insertions performed significantly worse than more experienced colleagues, while self‐assessment did not reflect objective performance in any group ...
